Approaching the New Year's court, even if the snow is fluttering, in front of the Vermilion Bird Square, there are still people coming and going, especially the foreign envoys of all colors and strange costumes waiting for the Dali Temple to arrange the reception of the team, but this time it is different from previous years, there are more than ten huge copper furnaces in the cold wind Vermilion Bird Square, and the red-hot coal fire is beating in it.

Coal stove cotton clothes and big quilts, this is the change that Li Jie brought to Chang'an, making Chang'an in this cold winter extraordinarily warm.

I have to mention that the cotton textile guild has shown unprecedented influence in just half a year, and even the Qianniu guards who guarded Li Jie and Wu Meiniang around him wore armor with cotton embedded in it, but they monopolized cotton textile technology, and also set up a greedy enemy for the cotton textile guild who didn't know how many eyes.

Fortunately, these are not Li Jie's turn to have a headache for the time being, and the Chang'an family, including the newly joined Xingyang Zheng family, has formed a group, whenever there is a sound of attack in the court, you can always see a large group of courtiers eager to step forward bare-chested for the cotton textile guild, and Li Shimin, who took the big head, turned a blind eye, although the attacks on Li Jie continued, for him, it was lighter than a mosquito bite.

"Don't worry, although the East Palace is constantly making small moves, King Wei also seems to smell something, he will definitely oppose what the prince approves, and he will definitely agree with what the prince opposes." Walking in front of the palace gate, seeing Li Jie's worried eyes, Wu Meiniang persuaded very firmly, but she didn't expect that in the face of her persuasion, Li Jie shook his head.

"Mei Niang, that's not what I'm worried about."

Stretching out his hand, Li Jie said helplessly: "Recently, too much sugar has been used, and without sugar, sweet milk will not be easy to sell." ”

On the edge of the big coal stove, there were a few obscene Turks who were carrying big iron kettles and cups to sell back and forth, while making steaming sweet milk, while shouting back and forth in Turkic Chinese: "Take a look, authentic Turkic sweet milk, His Royal Highness King Shuo said it was good!" ”

Seeing that many foreign envoys, even many officials in Chang'an were attracted by the hot fragrance and generously donated, but Li Jie was still there with a bitter face, and suddenly Wu Meiniang shook her little brain melon speechlessly, and immediately stretched out her little hand and slapped Li Jie on the back of the head.

"Wow, the female officer has beaten the prince!" Covering the back of his head, Li Jie screamed exaggeratedly, pinching his waist, but Wu Meiniang held up her small chest and shouted: "What, can't I beat you?" ”

"Okay! Yes! Well played, haven't you ever seen such a heroic female officer? What to watch? After being beaten, Li Jie had to turn around and shout and scold the guards Qianniu, and the scolding guys quickly twisted their heads to the side, full of beard and a big mouth, but secretly grinning so big.

handed over the identity certificate, through the Chengtian Gate, Li Jie hurried to the Taiji Hall under the guidance of the eunuch to discuss politics, as a female official in front of the imperial bingpen, Wu Meiniang was also very busy, and it was too late to say goodbye to go to the errand again, Li Jie walked with his head stuffy, but he suddenly slowed down when he arrived at the Taiji Palace, and a pair of eyes stared directly at the embassy of the unknown country next to the temple door, and his mouth suddenly grinned.

It's not a peerless foreign beauty, mixed with the foreign mission is an authentic Guanzhong stinky old man, it is the hidden peerless swordsman Xue Zhiguan who has not been seen for many days and was sent by Li Jie to Zhangxiong on an errand****** is also.

It's just that now compared with the extremely cool swordsman who pretends to be comparable, Xue Zhiguan's appearance is definitely miserable, and it is not wrong that he is still dressed in a black robe, but his left arm is wrapped in a long bandage and hung heavily on his chest like a pig's knuckle, and the face of an old handsome man is also wrapped in a large circle of white cloth, like an egg roll bitter gourd.

Looking at Li Jie's smile, Xue Zhiguan first glared at him angrily, but then helplessly spread his hands to him, and squinted at the rest of the mission members around him, such a strange action immediately made Li Jie confused.

Before he could figure it out, the eunuchs in the Taiji Hall had already shouted in a long voice: "His Royal Highness King Xuanshuo is here!" ”

Nodding helplessly to this unlucky guy, Li Jie hurriedly entered the hall, and as soon as he arrived in the center of the hall, Li Jie immediately shrank his neck weakly, and the big red-faced fat man who was making a generous speech in the hall was not seen for more than a year Lu Dong Zanlu or that?

The real enemy was very red when he saw him, and when he saw Li Jie, Lu Dongzan almost didn't jump up, and pointed at Li Jie angrily and shouted on the spot: "It's him, His Royal Highness King Shuo......"

Damn, this guy is going to tear his face with this king? Before Li Jie could think of any countermeasures with a bitter face, Lu Dongzan had already put out that smile that was uglier than crying and said with difficulty: "His Royal Highness King Shuo's King Shuo quilt, King Shuo's cotton clothes are now on the plateau, bringing warmth to thousands of households on the plateau. ”

Saying that, Lu Dongzan, the old guy, bowed over with a big salute, which made Li Jie dumbfounded for a while, Songtsan Gampo will thank me? No kidding, thank me for eight generations of ancestors is about the same?

also knew the dirty affair between his son and Tubo, and Li Shimin's face on the top of the hall also became strange, and his dragon face couldn't stop jumping. Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Li Jie was stunned for a moment, and then he was full of smirks, and hurriedly picked up Lu Dongzan's arm and helped him up.

"Oh, you can't be deserved, Lu Xiang praised it, please get up quickly."

"There is still one thing for outsiders to ask for, I don't know if it's okay?" As soon as he got up, Lu Dongzan bowed his head again, which immediately made Li Jie's heart skip a beat, I damn it, hit the snake with the stick?

Sure enough, Lu Dongzan immediately lowered his head and asked bitterly: "His Royal Highness King Shuo, the plateau is bitterly cold, these cotton fabrics are tantamount to the supreme treasure of heaven to save the people of Tibet, Lu Dongzan is cheeky, please give His Highness a weaving method!" ”

After speaking, Lu Dongzan stared at Li Jie with a pair of eyes, not only him, but a large circle of courtiers, a large group of foreign envoys, and a large group of clan nobles, all of whom turned their eyes to the past, some were gloating, and some were full of worry, scratching their ears and cheeks to think of various excuses for Li Jie.

was stared at with straight hair, Li Jie immediately scolded in his stomach, fuck, you know that you are brazen, you still mention it, and this king robs the way to make money, and you don't want to live anymore? I haven't been beaten by the underworld!

Embarrassed for a moment, in various thoughts, Li Jie suddenly smiled and slapped his thigh and said: "Cotton textile technology? Yes! ”

"Your Highness not!" Immediately, an official jumped out nervously, and there were actually three or four supervising imperial histories who came out, and immediately bowed to the ground and admonished: "Your Highness, cotton weaving is the most important weapon of the country, Your Highness is cautious." ”

"Your Majesty, the people peep at my Tang Dynasty treasures, and their hearts should be punished, and the ministers think that they should expel their envoys and never stop their tributary roads!"

It's really ruthless, he didn't finish a sentence and was already about to drive people out, looking at his allies of the Cotton Textile Guild with a smile, Li Jie hurriedly smiled and waved his hand to relieve the embarrassed Lu Dongzan and said: "Shut up, what are you talking like, do you still have the demeanor of my Tang Dynasty?" A few adults should be cautious, don't be laughed at by the envoys! ”

As soon as these words came out, not to mention the ministers who joined the Cotton Textile Guild around him, even Li Shimin in the Dragon Court was stunned, he knew his son too well, not to mention for what face, even if you forced him with a knife, he would not easily spit out the secret of money to be made.

Lu Dongzan was also surprised, but then his heart sank.

Sure enough, Li Jie was still the same Li Jie, and he began to narrate it with a shake of his head.

"First of all, you need cotton peaches, you need fresh cotton peaches, this should be known, and then it is to squeeze the seeds, remove those impurities, and then spin them into fibers, which can be used to weave cloth, of course, it can also be used directly to fill the quilt, so that it is not as soft as the cloth woven after spinning into threads, but for Tubo, it should be okay, right?"

"That's it?" Lu Dongzan's eyes widened, isn't Li Jie the same as a fart, he also knows that he has to go to the son, and he also has to spin the thread, the only thing he doesn't know is how Li Jie goes to spin the thread, but Li Jie didn't say a word of bullshit in this regard, how not to make Tubo depressed.

"By the way, don't talk about it, this king almost forgot." slapped his thigh, Li Jie said seriously: "Also, the face in the cotton peach must be cleaned!" Otherwise, it won't keep warm! ”

The muscles on his head were jumping, Lu Dongzan resisted the urge to hit people, and squeezed out a smile that was even more ugly than just now and said, "Then, Your Highness, how to remove the seeds, how to make the cotton peach soft?" ”

"Tear it by hand!" Li Jie turned his head around when he looked at the idiot, looking at Lu Dongzan's fingers trembling with anger, Li Jie was afraid that he would not be angry, so he turned to the curly-bearded Xinjiang mutton skewers that the turtle did not soothe and asked: "This envoy, are you also using this method in the Western Regions, or do you still have some more advanced tricks?" ”

"No, no!" Strong Xinjiang flavor Chinese, curly bearded mutton skewers hurriedly shook their heads like rattles, just kidding, they didn't have an advantage in the first place, how could technology be said again? Nodding clearly, Li Jie spread his hands regretfully and said, "I'm sorry, he doesn't have more advanced tricks." ”

"So, so ......" his mouth trembled, his eyes were red, Lu Dongzan struggled to maintain his demeanor and "smiled": "In this way, thank you His Royal Highness King Shuo." ”

"Your Royal Highness King Shuo, you are clearly panicking!" Finally, this matter was taken over like this, and at the same time, a large number of civil and military officials were relieved, and suddenly another voice remembered behind them, which immediately attracted the angry eyes of hundreds of ministers, including Li Shimin.

In the face of so many cold eyes, the red-robed stunned green who spoke out was still so stupid that he didn't see it, and he twisted his neck and shouted: "Your Royal Highness King Shuo, the cotton textile guild clearly rumbles mechanically all day long, and a large amount of polished wood is transported in every month. ”

Although the red robe was stunned and said awe-inspiringly, his eyes inadvertently drifted to the end, Li Jie also looked at it with slanted eyes, in the corner of his eyes, the big belly of the splendid green robe appeared in his eyes, immediately, anger burned in Li Jie's heart, and with a stomach full of anger, Li Jie directly raised his halberd viciously and pointed out: "Zi Buyu is a strange and obscene skill, you are clearly slandering, do you know what a crime it is to slander a prince?" ”

"Come on, drag out this ignorant fanatic who is arrogant and dares to slander the royal reputation!" In the same rage, Li Shimin also shouted and threw up his sleeves fiercely, and he didn't even need to be convicted in Dali Temple, and a dozen or so Qianniuwei immediately agreed, dragging the stunned young man like a chicken and turning around and walking out.

"Your Majesty, the minister is wronged, Your Majesty can send someone to investigate, the suburbs of Chang'an, woo woo, woo woo~" was dragged away, the red-robed old stunned Qing was still shouting endlessly, but Qian Niuwei was very eye-catching, and casually found a rag and stuffed it into the old stunned Qing's mouth, carrying the endless fluttering and I don't know where the Wupin master quickly disappeared in the Taiji Palace.

Hehe, my good fourth brother, this time the younger brother wrote it down! Looking at Li Tai's ugly face with squinted eyes, Li Jie's heart was ruthless.
